Silverton, OR

26 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Named after the Silver River, the town grew up to play an important role in Willamette Valley settlement. Banking and finance helped drive the local economy, along with trade, agriculture, and transportation. It's the gateway town to Oregon's largest state park, Silver Falls. It's also where you will find the Oregon Garden, a lush 80 acre display of botanical delights with a strong emphasis on plants native to the Pacific Northwest. The city of around 10,000 is a historic burg with a nice, clean downtown that is home to a fine collection of shops and businesses. Interestingly enough, movie-goers might remember the downtown area from the movie_ "_Bandits" -- the Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton characters rob their first bank in Silverton. See more

Finding an apartment in Silverton that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.

While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.

If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
